Excuse me what did you just say to me?

Boy, you don't wanna go there

You told me to shut up

really you told me to shut up

You can't tell me that

because I'm a woman

You can't call me ugly

I am Beautiful

because I'm a Woman

and God made me Beautiful

So you have no rite calling me ugly

I'm stronger than that

Boy you aren't the boss of me

Because I'm a Woman
